Stories of Care: A Labour of Law: Gender and Class at Work - Palgrave Socio-Legal Studies
LJB Hayes
An interdisciplinary study of the law's influence on homecare work and the experiences of care workers in the UK. Drawing together interviews with analysis of legal documents and media reports, this highly topical text unpicks assumptions about care workers and identifies aspects of the law that are problematic in this work context.
